Mother Nature played havoc on the prep sports schedule last weekend and in the middle of this week.

A winter blizzard forced games scheduled for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday to be moved to later dates. Here are the rescheduled events for all five schools.

Fort Morgan

The baseball double-header with Fort Lupton that was set for Friday at 3 p.m. was moved due to field conditions after Wednesday's storm. Those games will now be played on April 2 starting at 12 p.m. Both games will be played at Legion Field.

Also getting moved to a later date was a girls tennis tournament hosted by Vista PEAK for the Mustangs girls tennis team. The tournament, originally set to begin Friday and finish on Saturday, will now begin on April 8 at 9 a.m.

Girls soccer will play a game against Erie at Pioneer Elementary on Monday. That game was previously scheduled for March 18.

Brush

Brush baseball was forced to move its second game with Valley this week due to weather. After originally trying to rescheduled the game from Thursday to Friday and Saturday, athletic director Scott Hodgson announced the game will be moved to a date later to be determined due to field conditions being too wet.
